            All aboard the nostalgia train! Many people have been clamoring for these two to reunite as their cult characters and now we can confirm that it’s happening. According to The Playlist, Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter have officially signed on to reprise Ted and Bill, respectively.

            The film titled “Bill & Ted Face the Music” will be the third movie in the franchise and will tell the story of the now middle-aged friends with families of their own and how they must reunite to find the magical song that will bring harmony to the universe after a visitor from the future warns them that their music can save everyone. The movie will have Bill & Ted traveling along with their daughters (who we anticipate could be the eventual stars of a spinoff series) and meeting a new selection of historical figures to lead into the adventure.

            “Bill & Ted Face the Music” is written by the men who started it all back in 1989, Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon. Dean Parisot, whose best known for directing “Galaxy Quest” but more recently episodes of Netflix series “Santa Clarita Diet” and “Grace and Frankie” will helm the third installment.

            No word on the release date for the project but it’s currently in pre-production. When Reeves and Winter were asked about of reuniting they said, “We couldn’t be more excited to get the whole band back together again. Chris and Ed wrote an amazing script, and with Dean at the helm we’ve got a dream team!”

It appears that the project is in excellent shape!
